ABC Wednesday - Z

After the perfection (!) of last week another contrived entry this week for ABC Wednesday as we reach the final letter, Z, of Round 3.
It's been a challenge finding Beatles' songs for each letter of the alphabet, but a much greater challenge finding a photo to ilustrate them. Not unexpectedly, there isn't a song title beginning with Z so I've chosen to go down the Zzzzz - as in sleepy-head - road.
Often when I sleep I dream and that leads me nicely into this week's photo. I'm snooZing on Middle Beach, Tofino, on Vancouver Island and, Like Dreamers Do, I'm dreaming of ... who else?Like Dreamers Do was written by Paul McCartney in 1957. The Beatles sang it at their unsuccessful Decca audition in 1962 and a cover version of it, recorded by The Applejacks, reached number 20 in the UK singles chart. It was later included on a Beatles Anthology and was attributed to Lennon and McCartney.
To participate in ABC Wednesday, go here.

I was curious which of the Beatles songs began with Z, but somehow you manoeuvred so cleverly that in the end you did it again! Won derful.
Thanks for your visit to my waterfalls. I remember that in Wales we saw the Swallow Falls near Betws-Y-Coed.That was impressive.

Well done on the last entry, Liz. That was a challenge. I've never heard the song either. You're a real Beatles fan, aren't you?

That was a nice round-off - even with a song that I can't remember. Not many songs at all that begins with a Z in English (or in Norwegian for that matter). Might be in French or Dutch.

And I will be joining in with the next round but if I have a theme it will be less constraining than this one was!
